Abstract: A convertible walker and stroller device includes a base having a plurality of wheels affixed thereto and a platform movably connected to the base via a height adjustment mechanism. A pair of openings disposed on the platform are adapted to receive a pair of legs of an occupant therethrough. The platform is configured to move between an extended position and a retracted position, wherein the platform contacts an upper side of the base when the platform is in the retracted position, and wherein a gap is defined between the base and the platform when the platform is in the extended position. The device can be selectively switched between walker and stroller configurations, providing multiple ways to transport an infant or small child in a single device.

Abstract: The disclosure is directed to a system, method, and computer program for predicting the value of an idea based on crowd input. Users are prompted to vote as to whether variables for an idea (e.g., cost, time to implement, revenue/cost-savings) are greater than or less than proposed values. The proposed values are derived from probability distributions for the variables. Each time a vote is received for a variable, a new probability distribution for the variable is created, wherein parameters of the distribution (e.g., mean, shape parameter) are based on the vote data. The polling continues for each of the variables until a poll termination event occurs. The mean of the final probability distribution for each variable represents the system's estimate (or prediction) of the crowd's consensus value for the variable. Ideas are ranked based on the final consensus value estimates for the ideas.
